    I am 5'5. I weigh between 128-130. I just took my measurements: Bust 39, Waist 27, & Hips 37. I'm happy to see that I'm within a "normal healthy" range- I didn't have any point of comparison so thank you all for posting!

    In consensus with the several ladies talking about higher hip bones and a short torso- I'm with you on that one. It's quite frustrating feeling as though my waist is so wide! I'd love to pick up corset training or something of that nature just to see if it makes a difference because diet and an active lifestyle isn't quite doing it...

    Keep up the good work ladies!

    My thick hair just pushes me to 5'5'' ;D

    B: 33"
    W: 25.5"
    H: 35.5"

    128-132 pounds. My weight, like every person's, fluctuates, even when weighed at the same time or under similar circumstances.

    I guess my ideal would be 120, but after having lived for so long being afraid of food, I'm learning to be grateful for where I'm at now and loving myself in the moment.

    What body type am I? I want to be 120 with a 26 inch waist but my boobs are always the first thing to go :(

    I am female, 5'6" & 140lbs

    36 - bust
    30 - waist
    37 - hips

    As you can see, I don't have an hour glass figure like you guys. My waist isn't small. I'm more of a "straight" or "apple body type."

    Ah, that was an old post of mine.
    I am now 137lbs & more muscle!

    37.5 - bust
    28 - waist
    38 - hips

    I'm around 152lbs, 5ft 5.

    Under bust - 34.5
    Waist - 29.5
    Hips - 36

    Goes to show what exercising and eating right (vs. eating too little) can do for you. When I was around 16/17 I weighed 9.5 stone (~136lbs) and my measurements were 34, 28 & 36. I'm only 2 inches off those measurements overall and yet I'm 17lbs heavier! Think I'd be really happy if I lost another 7lbs...would feel like I have some room lol, but I'm back in my tight dresses now!

    That sounds more like a pear shape. The weight is more likely to come off you top if you are a pear. There are certain measurements you can find online to be sure. Apple's seem to have much smaller legs then anything could mean weight does not .want to hang around there. I would suggest Apple shapes to exercise there legs cardio (not in a spot training type of way). I feel like the box with the Apple shape will burn fat everywhere else. So as a pear shape it would be harder to lose inches from the hip and thigh area so try working the arms more. Randomness, I read this somewhere without a sourse I sound odd.

    Waist - 32.5'
    Hips 40.5'

    Getting serious again after slowly (read: not working at it consciously) losing most of the baby weight (ideal is 145lb and I've been there before)

    I'm much shorter than that, but whatever. I'm 5'2" 124lbs
    Bust: 36
    Waist: 27
    Hips: 36
    But, I'm seventeen, I still have some growing to do, so that will probably change.

    I'm 5ft6 & was 41-31-38, weighing 162lbs when I started, then went off track and am now back on track!

    Now I'm 143lbs and 36-26-36 so pretty happy with the measurements, but feel like I'm not really losing weight...not sure if it's muscle or if I just store all of my fat elsewhere lol.

    I'm almost 50 yo and remember growing up hearing the Miss America measurement goals were an hour glass of bust x, minus 10 for the waist, and x again for the hips. Most of the times however hips were x+1.

    I'm 5'6" and weight 156. My goal is 140 to 145 which is where I was when I graduated HS 5 years ago.

    Anyone else have similar measurements as me?

    35"
    29"
    44"

    It's that last number that gets me. . .
